Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

I would try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

He really is that stupid.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Roe is not about choice. It is about freedom.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Double Angel Match for Four Directions Montana 6x $25 donations while it lasts

by | 41 Comments

This post is in: , ,

So the holiday has come and gone, and so the “Angels will match anything that goes into the thermometer until it reaches $22,500” has come and gone, too.

$2,500 of Angel match money has been added added to the thermometer, and a bit more is on the way.

But we still have a ways to go to hit our $30,000 goal!

Remember, we have an external match, and with this double-angel match, your donation will be 6x until we hit $750 dollars in small donations – up to $25 per person.

    I will have a post up tomorrow about Jon Tester’s opponent, who has gotten himself into his very own “macaca” situation in Montana.

    If I were writing the headline for an article, it might be something along the lines of Racist Pig & Carpetbagger Poser Shows His True Colors, Yucking It Up with His Big Donors, Laughing at Those “Stupid” Indians.

    Caught on tape, of course.

    Let’s hope this goes the way of the race in Virginia all those years ago.

    @WaterGirl: I wonder if you mean “Macaca.” That’s  the slur George Allen called the Indian-American videographer who was filming an Allen rally on behalf of Jim Webb’s campaign in 2006.

    Allen later said that he made the word up, but the epithet was commonly used by French residents of Algeria to disparage native Algerians. Allen’s mom was French Algerian so he probably picked “Macaca” up from her but did not want to throw her under the bus. The damage was already done anyway, and Allen lost by ~10,000 votes.

    The quilt raffle is coming along.  I think we’re at $4,300 or so – I was hoping for $5,000 for the quilt raffle, and we still have several more days until Sunday.

    Donated $25.  Watergirl, thanks for doing this and the other things.  It allows me to help with the effort to defeat Trump and the rest.

    Dropped in another $25 just now for the 6x match, to add to the $50 contributed under the 4x match a coupla days ago. We need to keep Jon Tester in the Senate. (ETA: And it sounds like our Four Directions friends have extra added incentive to help get him across the line.)​

    I put in $25 last night, if there’s some match that can be applied, wonderful! If not, it’s still money well spent!

    I think you have an unclosed strikethrough tag – starting with this post, everything on the front page is strikethrough.

    FWIW, I did put in $25 yesterday or perhaps even earlier but could not find a thread to post that in. It seems like it should have gotten matched anyway, so I didn’t worry much about it.

    Today I am driving through Montana on our way to Glacier from Yellowstone.  Many signs on large ranches along the Yellowstone for Testers opponent whose name begins with an ‘S’ but is otherwise unmemorable.  The going slogan seems to be “protect our children” which is both diabolical and projection.  Testers signs, though less numerous until one gets closer to Missoula where we are for the night have more substance about Vets, Choice and Workers.

    I hope to run into a Tester campaign office in town tomorrow so I can Kick in some in person money over and above the monthly donations I make via Act Blue.  This is a must win race and Tester is both a good enough politician to win it and a decent enough guy that I really hope he does.

    Also, no trout I have caught in the last week have been anything but Tester supporters.  But they can’t vote or donate, so the rest of us have to.
